Stream one – Flagship activities
Three grants of between A$15,000 and A$50,000 each are available for delivering activities designed to provide tangible benefits to EMCRs in Australia. The activity must benefit EMCRs across more than one Australian organisation and include sponsorship support from additional event partners. The Academy will provide some support to the event where required, such as event website hosting, event registration and publicity.

Stream two – Amplify activities
Up to ten grants of between A$5,000 and A$15,000 are available to EMCRs living in Australia for activities that will bring additional benefits and opportunities to conferences or symposia. Amplify grants do not support core event arrangements. The activity being funded by an Amplify grant must be an add-on event, complimentary to the main activity or be provided to attendees as a scholarship to cover event participation costs, such as conference registration fees, training workshop enrolment costs or to pay for consumable materials required to participate in the event.

Stream three – Participation support
Australian EMCRs can apply for a participation support grant to assist with the cost of attending and participating in an event or activity. Participation support grants provide funding to offset the cost of caring, accessibility and mobility needs for EMCRs to enable their attendance at an event or activity that will support career development, such as a conference or training workshop.
